Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 701 Enemies and Gifts

A sacrifice to your father?

Are you telling a joke?

Why not sacrifice it to my own father?

Such a simple truth, you don’t need to think about it to know that it is absolutely correct.

God Pan was sitting on the altar, listening to Manda telling what happened. God Pan couldn't help but complain about Ganymede's actions.

"Kronos may have had a war with the Lord of Divine Punishment recently."

Manda was shocked: "Where did this news come from?"

"There is no news, it's just my speculation."

"Why is there such a speculation?"

"I suspect that Cronus's brain has been damaged, otherwise he wouldn't have made such a stupid move, letting Ganymede leave the extremely cold place for a divine punishment archbishop? Not only did he offend Gaia, but he also violated To destroy a true God, such an approach is simply ridiculous and unreasonable.”

"Perhaps Cronus is planning a war, and as an internal agent, Leo plays a key role in this war."

"What role can he play?" God Pan was still puzzled. "Even if he really does have a role, even if he really succeeds, how can your father let you go if you are kidnapped by Ganymede? When this matter is exposed, How could the Lord of Divine Punishment trust Leo Frank? I can’t understand it, it’s really incomprehensible!”

God Pan didn't bother to think about things that he couldn't figure out. Staring at Ganymede's head, God Pan asked a question that even Manda couldn't figure out: "Do you want your father to help you get rid of an enemy? Want to give dad a gift?"

Manda was stunned for a long time: "Is there a difference between the two?"

"From the results point of view, there is no difference, but if your idea is to get rid of the enemy, it means you owe your father a favor, and you have to pay it back."

“What if I’m thinking the latter?”

"That's another matter. Do you really think the latter?" Pan Shen showed a sinister smile.

Manda swallowed her saliva, speaking carefully at this time.

Giving gifts is not wrong after all, and owing favors is not a good thing after all. Manda hesitated for a moment and answered carefully: "This is my gift to my father."

"Congratulations," Pan Shen smiled, "you have taken a big step on the road to promotion."

"A big step? Is this the third contract?"

"More important than the contract, this is a sacrifice for your promotion to the eighth level."

The sacrifice for promotion to the eighth level is actually a sacrifice to a true god? Even Hermes has been so harsh? No wonder there are so few eighth-level believers of the Lord God.

"In other words, after I complete the remaining two contracts, I can be promoted to the eighth level?"

"That's right! The reason why my father asked the Sphinx to come to the mortal world to protect you is to prepare for your promotion." God Pan waved his hand and took Ganymede's head into his arms. He took out a stone statue of Hermes from his arms and said, "You deserve this, but don't be happy too early. One year is still long. Don't let Romulu get involved in the war." , you must also be prepared, the third contract may be more difficult than you imagine."

Manda took the statue, her hands couldn't help but tremble.

Since coming to this world, Manda's ultimate goal has never changed. To obtain the name of God and obtain eternal life, this unattainable goal seems to be right in front of her at this moment.

God Pan reminded again: "The process of sacrifice is not over yet, my father will send someone to the mortal world to take over Ganymede's authority."

"Who will be sent?" Manda hoped it would be Sanjila. Ever since she followed Manda, Sanjila had not had a good life for a few days. Now on Mount Olympia, she is just a servant who allows others to bully her.

But the answer Pan gave was not Sanjila: "It's your brother."

My brother? Hermes is the father, and the brother is naturally the god Pan.

"Are you coming to take over the reins yourself?"

Pan Shen shook his head and said: "I wish it was me. I miss the mortal world a little, and there are not so many troubles between us. It's a pity that my father left this matter to your other brother, who is not so easy to get along with. "

Another brother? Another son of Hermes?

Hermaphroditus? Why Him?

Manda had some interactions with Hermaphroditus on Mount Olympia. As Pan said, this god was indeed difficult to get along with. He was always unwilling to talk to Manda, and there was always a little disgust in his eyes. Even hatred.

"Must it be Him?" Manda asked tentatively.

"I don't want to be like this, but this is the division of labor arranged by my father. Promotion to the eighth level is an important matter. When you are promoted, I will handle the things on the mountain, and He will be responsible for the things in the world. You can't do anything. Never offend Him.”

"I have never offended this brother, but Hermaphroditus seems to have some prejudice against me, and I would like to know the reason."

"There are many reasons, and I can't explain them in a sentence or two. In short, it's better to be careful."

Pan left. Although the last mention of Hermaphroditus made Manda somewhat unhappy, she unexpectedly received a sacrifice that promoted her to the eighth level, and also shattered Leo's rebellion conspiracy. The joy in her heart would not be affected by this. Too many influences.

It was late at night and Manda still couldn't sleep. Although Leo was under control, the matter was not over yet. There were still Leo's die-hard loyalists and a group of newly appointed generals in the cathedral.

These die-hards are the seven senior deacons around Leo, including Amado, all from Gray Fish Town. Killing them may trigger a mutiny in Gray Fish Town.

Manda ordered Amado to feed everyone with herbal medicine, and after they fell asleep, they were sent back to Qixing Mountain from the underworld twice and handed over to Jenkins for strict interrogation.

As for the newly appointed generals, it was impossible for Manda to be soft on them and kill them directly. After seeing the heads of these generals, the God's Punishment Army that Leo had just formed also fell apart.

At this point, the hidden dangers hidden in the Bayer Country have been basically resolved, but the hidden dangers in the Romulu Country are still deep-rooted.

There are a large number of Leo's die-hard loyalists in Gray Fish Town, waiting for Leo's orders at any time. If they learn that Leo has been captured, they may raise troops at any time. If they want to ensure the security of the southwest, they must eliminate these die-hard loyalists as soon as possible, but if they want to avoid War must use relatively mild means.

Roma and Eudora are still in the hands of King Bayer, and now it is not even sure whether she is in Frost Flower City. His woman must be rescued, but the problem still cannot be solved by means of war.

To solve these problems, the final way out lies with Leo.

Manda calmed down her anger and talked to her old friend for a long time, but Leo was as firm as a stone. He refused to disclose any information and only wanted to die.

"For you, can death really be considered a relief?"

Leo smiled and said: "Is there a better way to escape than this?"

"There are many ways to correct the wrong things you did, and pay off the debts you owe. No matter you deal with gods or mortals, you have an explanation. This is the real relief."

Leo looked at Manda and said, "What did I do wrong?"

"The biggest mistake you made is that you should not have misunderstood me. Why do you think I will snatch the position of archbishop?"

"Because people in the world are greedy, especially people like you. It's impossible for you not to be greedy for power."

"I admit that I am greedy, but if I want power, why shouldn't I be the king?"

"You can't become a king. This is a bad habit left over from the classical era. Nobles attach great importance to birth. They can't let a baron's illegitimate son sit on the throne."

"Doesn't the position of archbishop depend on one's family background?"

Leo nodded and said: "The Lord loves the world and everyone is equal. You have been to the Holy Kingdom. You should know that many officials in the Kingdom are from civilian backgrounds. Pope Madesa's background is even lower than that of civilians."

Manda smiled and said: "The Church of Divine Punishment can tolerate poverty, but do you tolerate heretics?"

Leo was stunned for a moment, and then said: "In the forty-sixth volume of the Holy Classics, there was such a sentence..."

"Don't tell me any scriptures," Manda shook his head, "Just tell me which high-ranking official in the Holy Kingdom is a heretic? Is there any archbishop in the past who is a heretic?"

Leo didn't say anything. He really couldn't find such an example. Allowing some heretics to survive is the greatest tolerance of the church. Letting them join the church and hold important positions is absolutely unimaginable.

"Leo Frank, if you think about it carefully, there is no possibility that I will compete for the position of archbishop. This is Kequen's divorce plan. I didn't expect you to fall for it so easily."

Leo smiled bitterly and said: "It's already wrong. I don't regret it. Everything I had before was your charity. Now I have at least fought for it once."

Manda had given Leo countless help, but who would have thought that these help would hurt Leo's self-esteem.

Manda sighed: "You are not going to change the mistakes you made, but what about the debt you owe?"

Leo raised his head and said: "I once owed you a lot, but I have repaid you. I have gone through fire and water for you, and I have risked my life several times. I think we should settle everything."

Manda shook his head and said: "The grievances between us are settled separately. The debt I am talking about refers to the debt you owe to another person. At the last moment of his life, he was still fighting for you to have a chance to survive. You died like this? Do you dare to say a clear conscience to his soul?"
